US-EU launch sanctions war against BRICS
US-EU Sanctions War Escalates Against BRICS, Targeting Global Energy Trade
Assess how coordinated US and EU sanctions targeting Russian energy intermediaries are forcing India and China into direct economic retaliation against the West. This analysis details why President Trump has fully committed to the sanctions escalator, likely leading to unavoidable escalation rather than capitulation from Moscow.
Short Summary
- US sanctions target Rosneft/Lukoil subsidiaries and pressure India to stop refining Russian oil, coordinated with new EU packages hitting Russia's energy sector.
- Analysts assert that this pivot means President Trump is now fully committed to "Project Ukraine," removing any path for retreat.
- China is already countering by deepening financial and energy ties with Russia and restricting critical exports like rare earths and semiconductor components.
- The structure of these sanctions is predicted to self-harm Europe through higher energy costs and re-route trade complexity rather than cripple Russia.
This episode breaks down the synchronized escalation in economic warfare initiated by Brussels and Washington against key BRICS members—Russia, China, and India. Listeners will understand the dangerous dynamic of the "sanctions escalator" and where the West’s greatest supply chain vulnerabilities—namely rare earths and critical components—now lie in the face of mounting retaliation.

the road to madness paved by the psychopathic elites
The EU, man... They still think that the rest of the world is their colonies...
The BRICS need to stick together and resist. There is no legal basis for US sanctions under International law. India needs to decide which side it is on real soon.
The EU is doomed Economically, Financially, Politically and Socially by self infliction. It has reached the point of no return.
This is going to hit common people the most. They do not care about us at all.
The only ones who lose are the US and the west Russia will also prevail
Disgusting how the old colonists do everything in their power to keep the status quo. I hope BRICS will survive this.
Even more reason for me to support BRICS.
WAIT, US and EU combined sanctions didn’t do jackshit against Russia but they think they can go up against the entirety of BRICS ?!?!
The collapse of the western empire. The west is broke.
